Hi Tony,
The cut tire explains it all!  I was thinking to myself for a few corners that “this guy has some huge inputs!”  🤣.  The unexpected makes it fun!  That’s even better about finding a freebie to replace it!
I’ve got some setup work to do; I might have hit the same curb during race 3.  A poor (non) passing decision on my part put me way to far right on the downhill, and I nailed the beginning part of the berm.  (And then waived the Henry and Bob train by!). Turns out after safety checking the car when back home the next weekend, that it had stripped out a sway bar arm (and cracked it) introducing a huge amount of preload up front, and a bar that was more sway than bar.   So, I had run the rest of that race and the Kastner Cup itself that way, AND PROCEEDED TO GO FASTER!!   I seem to do better when things go wrong somehow…  
Looking forward to Mosport!
Dave G

Hi FOT,
I finally got around to burning all of my sessions from Lime Rock HF43; forgive the order not, well, being in order!

There's a few entertaining sections; including one of the races having an up close and personal view of Tony G's beautiful tr3 side door (ALL of it) on the downhill.  One of the few times I watched my mirror afterwards to make sure he stayed out of the wall!
Enjoy!
